Retail POS pricing in Tanzania, in TZS
Trakora Retail is priced per till per month in Tanzanian shillings, with RFID tags and gate hardware quoted separately. There is no published retail tier yet, so the number on your quote is scoped to your tills and branches — this page shows how the pricing is built, not a made-up figure.
Three parts to a retail quote
Retail pricing is made of a per-till software subscription, the tags for the stock you protect, and the gate hardware at each door. Each is quoted for what you actually deploy — so a two-till duka and a five-branch supermarket do not pay the same.
Software — the till
POS, shared SKU tree, multi-branch and cashier reports, on one login.
- Point of sale on every till
- One shared SKU tree across branches
- Per-cashier, per-shift, per-branch reports
Per-till figure is not published — it comes from your scoped quote.
RFID tags
The tags on the lines worth protecting — a per-tag consumable, not a subscription.
- Tag only what you choose to protect
- Cleared at the till when the item sells
- Reusable tag types quoted separately
Tag unit price and supported tag types are not published — see the hardware page.
Gate hardware
The RFID reader, gate buzzer and tag detacher at each door.
- Gate reader + buzzer per door
- Tag detacher at the till
- Install scoped per doorway
Hardware unit prices are not published — quoted per deployment.
Every price on this page reads — on purpose. No retail tier, tag price or hardware price is published, so none is stated here as fact. Ask and you will get the real TZS figure for your shop, or a plain "we do not have that yet". Any TZS prices you have seen elsewhere in the market belong to other vendors and are not Trakora's.
Six things that shape your quote
Nothing here is a hidden fee. These are the inputs a scoped quote is built from — the more of them you can tell us, the tighter the number.
| Input | Why it matters | TZS |
|---|---|---|
| Number of tills | Software is per till per month — this is the main recurring line. | — |
| Number of branches | More branches means more gates and more roll-up, but one shared SKU tree. | — |
| Tags per month | A per-tag consumable — how many lines you tag, and how often stock turns. | — |
| Doors to protect | Each door needs a reader and a buzzer; one-off hardware, not a subscription. | — |
| Existing hardware | If you already run scanners or printers, we quote around what fits. | — |
| Billing term | Billed in TZS via M-Pesa, Tigo Pesa, Airtel Money, bank transfer or card. | — |
Why we publish "—" and not a number. Some Tanzanian retail vendors publish a TZS price on their site. Where a real, honoured price exists we would match that honesty — but Trakora has no published retail tier yet, and putting an invented number here would be worse than a blank. So the figure is — until it is real, and the quote is scoped to your shop.
The container e-lock module does publish TZS tiers — if you want to see what a Trakora published price looks like, the container pricing page shows one.
TRA EFD/VFD is a separate line you already own
Fiscal receipting is not part of this quote. TRA runs electronic fiscal devices (EFD) and the virtual fiscal device (VFD) service, and any retailer required to issue a fiscal receipt already has a route for it. Trakora's EFD/VFD position is being confirmed and this page claims no integration and no TRA approval. Budget your fiscal device the way you do today; tell us what you run and we will say plainly whether it fits. See TRA's published supplier list.
What the price does not buy
Set your expectations
- There is no published self-serve retail tier yet. Retail is sales-scoped, so pricing comes from a quote, not a checkout button.
- The subscription is a till, a stock tree, and a door — it does not include accounting, payroll or an e-commerce store.
- Fiscal (EFD/VFD) receipting is not in the price and no TRA certification is claimed.
- Tags and gate hardware are quoted separately from the software subscription; there is no single all-in figure until the deployment is scoped.
- Any TZS price seen elsewhere in the market is another vendor's, not Trakora's, and is not honoured here.
